With GDM installed and using LightDM, it's possible to log into GNOME Shell. The Switch Session button doesn't do anything. If you lock the screen, you won't be able to unlock it. It would be great if LightDM could support this so we don't have to try to find an ugly hack to work around it. It would need to work in at least unity-greeter, but it would be cool if the KDE & GTK greeters would work too as they're being shipped by Kubuntu & Xubuntu.
